Long Description: Trophy Specialists Fishing Charters does just what the name implies, specializes in catching the biggest, most prized fish (walleye, salmon, steelhead and Great Lakes brown trout) that Michigan has to offer. We accomplish this by sportfishing on the hottest waters at their peak trophy producing periods. Yes, trailering a charter boat from port to port is expensive and a hassle, but quite frankly, it's the only way a captain can consistently produce peak fishing action for their customers throughout the season. By concentrating on the right places at the right times, Trophy Specialists guarantees its customers a successful fishing experience. If no fish are hooked up, your next trip is free, so we actually put our money where our mouth is. You can kick back and let the captain worry about catching the fish.

Trophy Specialists is all about professionalism with a total commitment to quality customer service. We provide leading edge, tournament tested gear, tactics and know how. You need not be an expert angler to land the big ones with us. Our services include expert coaching skills that gives even novice anglers a real chance to catch huge walleye, salmon, brown trout or steelhead. Fishing with Trophy Specialists may in fact be your best chance at catching that trophy of a lifetime for the wall or the photo album. With over 25 years of hard-core fishing experience and a U.S. Coast Guard Masters License with commercial towing and other endorsements, Capt. Michael Veine is one of the most highly qualified charter captains operating on the Great Lakes including Lake Michigan, Lake Huron and Lake Erie. In fact, Capt. Mike is licensed to pilot ships; now how many guides or charter captains can claim those kinds of credentials? Mike Veine is also a widely published outdoor writer and photographer, so your trophy tale and/or photos may even be featured in your favorite magazine (with your permission of course).
